The demand for power has increased manifolds in the recent years. Researchers around the globe are looking for various alternate energy resources. The main problems with the alternate sources are, harnessing methods are found to be more complex and their energy conversion efficiency is also low. This invention proposes an idea to utilize the waste heat generated from various resources. When waste heat is available in a convenient form, conversion to useful electrical power is to be made possible by means of thermoelectric generators. Solar panel is also utilized along with the thermoelectric generator so that, waste heat and the heat energy from the sun is used effectively. Consumers can install this set up in their houses in order to meet their own daily power requirement by properly selecting any one source at a time depending upon the availability. Novel Relay logic with strong power electronics circuitry forms the backbone of this proposed invention.
